Decreased Max Volume: Apple Music Connected to Waze Playing through Bluetooth
If I’m playing music through Apple Music connected with Waze playing through the car’s Bluetooth: Before beginning navigation, volume for the song begins at 100% of what the phone volume is set to, spoken navigation directions decreases volume of song to give 50/50 blend of music and directions at 100% total volume, and then PROBLEM - music volume increases after directions to ~85% total volume.
My car speakers don’t get loud so I need the phone and car volume at max, and with Waze I cannot get the best experience.

When apple carplay is connected - you can’t look at Waze on your phone.
When apple carplay is connected - you can’t look at Waze on your phone. I can’t scroll to see the road, it forces you to be on a list screen so while driving, I have to disconnect my phone, scroll, and then connect it back & wait for it to connect. Why can’t I just have a normal Waze app when it’s connected. This is so dangerous.

When using Apple car play there is no option to add a stop with the closest available location on route
When using Apple car play there is no option to add a stop using the closest available location on your current route. It only shows by mileage but that can sometimes backtrack you.

CarPlay adding Police
When you tag a police location using Apple CarPlay you get one option, when you use the phone you get 'visible', 'hiiden' and 'other side'. Can the extra options be added to CarPlay?

Fix user interface and make it look like how it does on apple car play or on android phones
So since roughly April when waze adapted to the new android auto split screen update also known as coolwalk waze has looked terrible and nothing like how it use to look or looks on android phones and apple carplay. It's just a bunch of black boxes and buttons. Being someone that uses waze more than more than 12+hrs a day. It would be nice. If you guys revert the current user interface to how it is on the phones and or how it looks on apple car play

Waze using the OEM Head-Up-Display (HUD) in cars
Most of new vehicles come equipped with a Head-Up-Display (HUD) and it would be critical that Waze leverages the de OEM Head-Up-Display (HUD). The Apple CarPlay with the app Maps already uses the OEM Head-Up-Display (HUD), but Waze doesn't use it in neither the Android Auto nor the Apple CarPlay. Please enable Waze to use the OEM Head-Up-Display (HUD) in our cars, specially in Android Auto.

compass for carplay, show compass direction of travel, please
I love Waze with Apple CarPlay.
When I am in an unfamiliar area I would REALLY like to know which compass direction I am traveling. Waze should display the travel direction. It currently does not.
How can I escalate this request?

Wade working with CarPlay. Seriously. The masses have reached out to Apple. Now YOU need to get with Apple and communicate. Make this happen
Simple make CarPlay and Waze work together. Enough is enough on the two companies making the users suffer.

Google as search engine
Please set google as the default search engine as they have much greater database. That way, we can utilize Waze as our primary map on our iPhones (thanks to Apple map). Thanks :)

Route icon moved from the top to the right in Apple CarPlay. Please move back icon back to the top to reduce driving focus.
Waze app was recently updated in July 2023 (~ver 4.96.1) and Route icon moved from the top to the right in Apple CarPlay. Please move back icon back to the top. My Acura uses a round dial to navigate Apple CarPlay and is not a touch screen. Previously it was a simple rotate to the right while drive to find alternate driving routes, but now it takes several clicks causing a major distraction to driving focus.

Please fix dark mode in Apple Carplay.
It’s been broke since last update. It only works right when I open the app on my phone and radio at the same time, which negates the purpose of carplay being handsfree. I’ve been patiently awaiting an update for weeks, but I’m about to delete your app for burning my retinas every morning when I drive to work in the dark.

Apple carplay screen covered
Please change the notification size for problems on the road, or make it easily dismissed. At the moment it takes up half the map blocking most of the directions. Frustrating and unsafe at times

Music Audio Quality
Dear @waze - I believe you have one of the best navigation app in the AppStore. But, there’s one major problem. When connected to Apple CarPlay, the audio quality is horrible when playing music!! Horrible enough that I’m forced to use Apple maps. Please fix this problem.
